Show persistence as a barcode
-----------------------------

.. note::
    this function requires matplotlib and numpy to be available

This function can display the persistence result as a barcode:

.. plot::
   :include-source:

    import gudhi

    off_file = gudhi.__root_source_dir__ + '/data/points/tore3D_300.off'
    point_cloud = gudhi.read_off(off_file=off_file)

    rips_complex = gudhi.RipsComplex(points=point_cloud, max_edge_length=0.7)
    simplex_tree = rips_complex.create_simplex_tree(max_dimension=3)
    diag = simplex_tree.persistence(min_persistence=0.4)

    plot = gudhi.plot_persistence_barcode(diag)
    plot.show()

Show persistence as a diagram
-----------------------------

.. note::
    this function requires matplotlib and numpy to be available

This function can display the persistence result as a diagram:

.. plot::
   :include-source:

    import gudhi

    # rips_on_tore3D_1307.pers obtained from write_persistence_diagram method
    persistence_file=gudhi.__root_source_dir__ + \
        '/data/persistence_diagram/rips_on_tore3D_1307.pers'
    plt = gudhi.plot_persistence_diagram(persistence_file=persistence_file,
        legend=True)
    plt.show()

Persistence density
-------------------

.. note::
    this function requires matplotlib, numpy and scipy to be available

If you want more information on a specific dimension, for instance:

.. plot::
   :include-source:

    import gudhi

    # rips_on_tore3D_1307.pers obtained from write_persistence_diagram method
    persistence_file=gudhi.__root_source_dir__ + \
        '/data/persistence_diagram/rips_on_tore3D_1307.pers'
    plt = gudhi.plot_persistence_density(persistence_file=persistence_file,
        max_intervals=0, dimension=1, legend=True)
    plt.show()
